France 1917
Agn?s Gunarsson de Melancourt is now a qualified doctor, and despite her youthful vow to shun Ch?teau de Dragancourt and its freethinking inhabitants, her oath as a physician weighs stronger.
World War I is raging over the north of France, and the castle has been turned into a frontline hospital, with Elle and Jacques at the helm.
Together with her best friend Kat, Agn?s faces the scars from the past in the castle's former dining room, now turned operation room, where they fight to save the lives of as many Allied soldiers as possible. There she meets a very changed Elle and Jacques, who now put duty before privilege.
Can Agn?s give Elle a second chance at friendship now they are stuck together? And why does the devilish handsome Jacques always bring down her defenses?
Doctor Agn?s has to face her own past in a war that is both personal and universal, finally uniting the opposing forces.
